In mid-May through June, the display cases will host the artwork of Marcè (pronounced MAR-SAY) Nixon-Washington, a multidisciplinary artist based in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. She received her BFA from West Virginia University with a focus in Africana Studies. Marcè studied Ceramics in Jingdezhen, China, where she found her love for shards and ceramic history. She investigates ceramics as an archival material to record personal and cultural history.
Her work has been exhibited at The Mufei Gallery in Jingdezhen, China, The Carnegie Museum of Art, the 2023 NCECA Conference, and she has most recently completed a solo exhibition at The Manchester Craftsman Guild as the inaugural William E. Strickland Jr. fellow. Marcè is also a member of the Union Project’s BIPOC Collaborative Studio and Women of Visions.
